Last night I was up way too late working on an audition I really wanted to land.  I think I did four or five revisions because I just wasn’t happy with how it was coming out.  Enter Victor Ireland.  Victor pushes more than anyone else I know when it comes to getting good reads out of me.  It’s nice to have a person in your life that tells you when you’re terrible, but gives you tools and suggestions on how to make it legitimately better, even if said suggestions aren’t necessarily welcome at 11:30 at night.

Long story short, last year I go to E3 with Victor and I love looking at all the new games scheduled to be released in the coming year before any of my hardcore gamer friends get a peek.  As you walk through the halls at E3 in the LA Convention Center, it’s a serious case of stimulus overload.  As you’re walking past booths, sometimes there’s a video game trailer playing with some awesome VO work (like Ben Kingsley’s read for some game I’ve since forgetten; but I remember the read was outstanding) that gives me goosebumps it’s so good.  So you can understand my excitement as I audition for video game trailers this month in the hopes of snagging more than one so I can hear myself blasted throughout Kentia Hall at E3 2010 in June.  I imagine it’s a little bit like the first time a rock star hears his song on the radio.  It’s magical and I can’t wait until June.
